Stan Lee talks to Playboy about everything—but is it the truth?
Playboy has a long interview with Stan Lee here (link NSFW but not really as much as you'd think), Normally I'd call this an "autumnal" interview, but under the circumstances, it's more...the lion in winter. Lee, perhaps realizing this is one of the few spots he has to dig in a little, sometimes avoids the kind of jokes and spin he uses in other interviews. And while his memory is always spotty (and any Lee interview includes may spots where he takes the question and moves the answer to more familiar territory) his grasp on things is still pretty sharp all things considered.

For instance he has drawn the poster for the film STRIPPED, a documentary about comic strip artists which also features an interview with Watterson. The piece is billed as Watterson's first cartoon in 19 years (he's shown a painting since then, a contribution to Project Cul-de-sac.)
